Clones

Hi, im new to this forum, and I just had a few questions about clones. Im just about to get 4 cutlings from my friends very healthy mother. What would be the best medium for them n what kind of light should i put on them? (i have a 400 MH n a couple of CFL's)

Ya use the cfl for a a few weeks until the roots have cum in or you could burn them with the 400.. I like using the rockwell cubes becase you can see the roots and you know when to transplant.... Hope it works for you

thanks for the feedback, i figured the CFL's for now....but how far should they be away from the plants? and should i just mist the plant or actually put water directly into the soil?

I keep the floros about 2 inches off the plants. I have only cloned using rockwell cubes so im not to sure how you would water it but I would lightly pour alittle water on the top of the soil when you seee it start to dry up. Dont let it get too dry tho.

If you clone in soil you can also see when the plant has made roots for that is the moment the plant will start making leaves again.
